Top 10 Plumbing Questions Our Customers Ask Us

1. "I REALLY need someone NOW, but I can't take time-off from work. What do I do? "

We offer our customers convenient evening and week-end hours and will be happy to come-out when you want us to. If you have an immediate plumbing emergency, please for our emergency shut-off procedure. Then call us at 773-871-9000 to schedule an appointment.

2. "A real plumber in the city with evening and week-end hours? How much more does that cost? "

No matter when you need us, our trip fee is always $35 all day, everyday. We understand that no one plans emergencies. We're just happy to help.

3. "What areas do you service?"

Typically, we service the North Shore and Near North Side. Please call to check availability.

4. "Okay, I'm sold. How soon can you be here?"

Normally, we can send a plumber out the same day. Certain emergencies have immediate priority. Please call us at 773-871-9000 for availability.

5. "Can you provide me with an estimate before you arrive and look at the problem? "

We prefer to provide estimates after a thorough review of your property. Without seeing your problem, it is difficult to determine a price because it is impossible to diagnose a problem without a visual inspection. But, we can give you an average of what a typical repair costs and give you an estimate once we view the problem. However, in some cases we are to provide estimantes based off of e-mailed digital photos. Be sure that you have several shots of the area (in decent lighting) along with any other pertinent information. Give us a call and then email your photos and reference your last name in the subject line.
